Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Told me I have cancer with no evidence
My first visit he seemed very knowledgeable. However he prescribed no medication nor ordered any tests, just wanted a follow-up in three weeks. In the meantime my calcium became so high I had to be hospitalized. When my calcium started rising I contacted him and he called me back. He said he had reviewed my records and believed I had cancer. I asked what type and he said Myeloma. I told him I has been tested twice and was negative for Myeloma. He said then you have Lyohoma. It was apparent to me had had not reviewed my records at all. I did have the PET scan he wanted. In my next appointment he said my PET scan showed cancer. He said I had Lyphoma but also still believed I had Myeloma and probably Leukemia at the same time. He then referred me to an Oncologist. The Oncologist reviewed my PET scan and said it showed NO evidence of cancer whatsoever. No reason for this doctor to put me through fear and anxiety when he declared I had cancer with no evidence. Horrible doctor!

Bodenner is a quitter doctor that leads w his ego. If you have years to find a diagnosis, he’s your guy. He and his nurse are careless, sloppy and reckless. The right side never knew what the left side was doing. He mumbles at what little he says and his nurse is a terrible communicator. If you have a complex case, run fast. Worst experience I’ve ever had with a doctor, and that’s an understatement

Did not listen to my concerns or symptoms at all. Did a fine needle biopsy on a nodule on my thyroid and it came back “unsat”. Not friendly or thorough. Will not go back.

I went to Dr. Bodenner for years and loved him. He actually listens to you as a patient as well as looking at your lab work. Unfortunately, now he is out of network for me.
